Technical Abstract

The method for configuring the network of a factory energy management system (FEMS) includes receiving a parameter set for configuration of the network, generating a diagram based on a characteristic for the parameter of each of communication schemes available for configuration of the network, determining, based on the diagram, a communication characteristic matrix including a characteristic value representing the characteristic for the parameter of each of the communication schemes, determining a correlation matrix representing a weight for the parameter in each process to be managed by the FEMS, deriving a communication adaptability matrix by applying the weight corresponding to the parameter for each process of the correlation matrix to the characteristic value for the parameter of each of the communication schemes included in the communication characteristic matrix, and determining a communication scheme to be applied for each process from among the communication schemes using the communication adaptability matrix.
